Welcome

Hi,

I’m so glad you found me. I have been a church musician for a very long time – starting from my time in Junior High.

My current church went on shut down just before the choir was to present it’s Easter musical offering so I put together a video of the songs (not them singing). And it was a success.

On May 4 our handbell choir and my community handbell choir were to present a combined handbell concert as the worship service. However again cancelled.

So realizing that – I asked my choir for their favourite hymns and received a number of great responses. So over the weeks to follow I started recording me playing them along with other songs from my repetoire.

Daily I posted them to YouTube (with the link on my Facebook timeline). However my YouTube url is messy and ugly and will be until I get 100 subscribers. So I created this web page to make it easy to tell you how to find me.
